Electrolyes are as important during the winter months as they are in the summertime.  When horses become dehydrated in the cold weather they are more prone to getting colic.  Try giving the horses luke warm water instead of the icy cold water.

Due to the recent outbreaks of various contagious diseases across the country, Fenwick Farm would like to inform all owners of the neccessity of properly vaccinating their horses.    EASTERN & WESTERN ENCEPHALOMYELITIS,  INFLUENZA, RHINOPNEUMONITIS (EHV-1 & EHV-4),  BOTULISM,  WEST NILE  and TETNUS are basic vaccinations which should begin in the foaling year.   STRANGLES and HERPES vaccines are now neccessary for  the shipping of horses.   If your horses are based on the east coast POTOMAC HORSE FEVER vaccine would be recommended.  We recommend a vaccine for VENEZUELAN ENCEPALOMYELITIS for midwest and southwest travel.  We also recommend a RABIES vaccine.  Many of these vaccines are available in 5-way and 6-way shots which make it very manageable.  Also, if a horse has never been vaccinated, many of the vaccines will require 2-3 shots at various intervals. 

All Fenwick Farm horses will be vaccinated.
